Hi Vito,

if the W28E will fit might depend on the type of drive you currently have. It might even be impossible if the connector adaptor of your drive doesn't fit with standard slim-line drives. I've got the 12x CD-ROM module and the connector adaptor fits with the W28E. However the W28E has only one of the four mounting screw holes in the same position as the original drive. But it can nevertheless be mounted tightly. I have seen one picture of an connector adaptor board on a website that is different from the one of my unit and that will not fit with the W28E. I assume that the connector adaptor board of the 6x and 8x drives is different from the one of the 12x units and will therefore not fit with standard slim-line drives. I also don't know if one can get into problems with slave or master preconfigured drives but I've had none so far.

Yes, I edited it but in my haste I did not really edit all of it properly. I am at times a little too anxious, and not appropriately patient about the task at hand.

My 1400c is now up and running on your new gcc kernel and the install seemed to go a bit smoother, But this time I went with the Deb installer's suggestion about the size of the swap file being limited to 183 megs, this is a large mistake on my part as I can tell you that the system really churns away at the hard drive, and is noticably slower as a result.

Last time I installed, I used a 1.2 gig swap and it seemed alot smoother in in running apps. So I am in the market for a larger hard drive. I recently purchased a cd-rw teac w28e for the 1400 as I read tobias' email that it could be used with the 1400. I'm wondering if it needs to be modified in some way to fit the 1400c?

Many Thx - once again,
Vito

ok I renamed the gcc kernel to miboot .image and made that the only one in the kernel folder, I also edited yaboot config to reflect 2.4.30 nubis - powermac, but when I booted the screen still reads2.4.27 qs the choice other than the installer.

That's strange. Do you really edited the right yaboot.conf?

It should read something like this:

image = miboot.image-2.4.30-PB_MB1_GCC3
label = Linux 2.4.30
video = nbpmacfb
root = <your root partition, e.g. /dev/hda8>
append = "keyboard_sends_linux_keycodes=1"
